Identification of Genomic Predictors of Muscle Fiber Size

open access: yesCells
The greater muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) is associated with greater skeletal muscle mass and strength, whereas muscle fiber atrophy is considered a major feature of sarcopenia.

Lysine methyltransferase 2D regulates muscle fiber size and muscle cell differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2021
Abstract Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare genetic disorder caused primarily by mutations in the histone modifier genes KMT2D and KDM6A . The genes have broad temporal and spatial expression in many organs, resulting in complex phenotypes

Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of the process of obtaining cross-sectional area and echo intensity measurements of muscles from ultrasound images

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasonography, 2021
Introduction: The use of ultrasound images for analyzing muscle quality and size is continuing to grow in the literature. However, many of these manuscripts fail to properly describe their measurement techniques and steps involved in analyzing ultrasound

Small Multifidus Muscle Size Predicts Football Injuries [PDF]

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2014
Background: In Australian football, lower limb injuries have had the highest incidence and prevalence rates. Previous studies have shown that football players with relatively more severe preseason and playing season hip, groin, and thigh injuries had a significantly smaller multifidus muscle compared with players with no lower limb injuries ...

An investigation of the relationship between lower limb muscle size, strength, and tibia length: A specific analysis of the hamstring and quadriceps muscles

open access: yesROL Spor Bilimleri Dergisi, 2023
The primary aim of this investigation was to assess the interrelations among the ratios of hamstring-to-quadriceps muscle size and strength, as well as the associations with hamstring and quadriceps muscle size, tibia length, and muscle strength.

Short-term strength adaptation in isometric training to volitional failure depends on initial specific tension in elbow flexors

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2023
We tested a hypothesis that individuals with low maximal voluntary isometric contraction relative to muscle cross-sectional area (MVC/mCSA) would have greater strength gain compared to those with high MVC/mCSA in an early stage from beginning of ...
